Fajita Stuffed Chicken Recipe By Tasty
AIR-FRYER FAJITA-STUFFED CHICKEN
I had all the ingredients for fajitas, but instead of heating up my big oven I decided to try out the air fryer. Since mine is a small one, I wanted to get as much filling as I could in each stuffed chicken breast. This worked nicely by cutting slits in the breasts and then filling them. -Joan Hallford, North Richland Hills, Texas

Steps:
- Preheat air fryer to 375°. Cut a pocket horizontally in the thickest part of each chicken breast. Fill with onion and green pepper. In a small bowl, combine olive oil and seasonings; rub over chicken., In batches, place chicken on greased tray in air-fryer basket. Cook 6 minutes. Top chicken with cheese slices; secure with toothpicks. Cook until a thermometer inserted in chicken reads at least 165°, 6-8 minutes longer. Discard toothpicks. If desired, serve with toppings of your choice.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together all of the fajita seasoning ingredients and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, ovenproof skillet. Toss in the bell peppers and onions and sprinkle on 2 teaspoons of the fajita seasoning. Sauté until the veggies have softened, about 6 minutes.
- Using a sharp knife, slice into the side of a chicken breast to form a large pocket, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- Spoon in some of the fajita pepper mixture so that the breast is comfortably stuffed.
- Season the chicken on both sides with fajita seasoning.
- Heat the remaining oil in the skillet and brown the chicken, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, until the meat is cooked through.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Enjoy!
